PT30 is a high quality, private brand
sheet jointing comprising of a mixture
of polyaramid and inorganic fibres,
bonded with a NBR binder. It is a
general purpose gasket material,
suitable for hot and cold water, steam,
oil, fuel, gases and other general duties.
Approved to BS7531 Grade Y
BS7531 Grade X
A Premium Grade Non-Asbestos
Gasket Materials
For use with water, steam and gases
at temperatures up to 250ºC and
for oil, solvents and inert liquids at
temperatures up to 440ºC.
PT20 is a composite of mineral and
aramid fibres with NBR binders. Suitable
for use in low pressure applications, in a
wide range of non-aggressive media.
BS7531 Grade Y
For use with water, steam and gases
at temperatures up to 200ºC and
for oil, solvents and inert liquids at
temperatures up to 350ºC.
PT50 is an alternative private brand
aramid based sheet jointing. Suitable
for general purpose low temperature
applications. Approved to BS7531
Grade Y
PT60 is our premium quality, private
brand sheet jointing, comprising of
glass and aramid fibres, bonded
together with a NBR binder. It is a
general purpose, medium pressure
rated gasket material and an
excellent choice for general chemical
applications. Approved to BS7531
Grade X
General Grade Non-Asbestos
Gasket Materials

4. Graphite Laminates
A semi-rigid laminated material
manufactured from high purity exfoliated
graphite reinforced with nickel or stainless
foil or tanged stainless steel.
Expanded PTFE
Sheet
100% multidirectional expanded PTFE
sheet, minimum of cold-creep, high
gas permeability. Universal chemical
resistant, pH 0-14, excellent on rough
or damaged flange surfaces.
Composite
PTFE Products
Modified PTFE Materials
Composite PTFE150 and PTFE160
are a PTFE-based group of products
capable of sealing chemicals right
across the 0–14pH range, at
temperatures from cryogenic to 260°C
and at pressures from 85 bar down to
vacuum. Typified by low creep, sustained
service capability and robustness and
has numerous advantages over many
alternatives including pure and filled
PTFE and envelope gaskets.

Egraflex is a Graphite Laminate
sheeting reinforced with a Tanged 316
stainless steel insert.
A universal material for (petro)
chemicals. Used in high pressure
and high temperature applications.
Recommended for applications involving
high sealing stresses and where high
blowout resistance is required. The
inclusion of the steel reinforcing layer
gives rise to a robust sheet. Can be
used to seal a wide range of media
including hot water, thermal oils,
hydrocarbons and specified chemicals.
Pink Modified PTFE sheeting. High
performance biaxially orientated sheet
sealing material containing PTFE with
silica filler. Excellent resistance against
cold-creep. Universal quality for (petro)
chemical applications, acids and gases.
Blue Modified PTFE sheeting. High
performance biaxially orientated sheet
sealing material containing PTFE with
Approvals:

hollow glass micro spheres. Excellent
resistance against cold-creep and very
gas tight. Seals with low bolt force.
Universal chemical resistance and can be
used for several flange materials: steel,
plastic, glass and ceramic lined.
